Liquid Graphite

I found a new art product recently called "Liquid Graphite". It comes in a bottle and has the consistency of acrylic paint. I used it with a watercolor brush and water to do this study of a male model. It looks like a very old drawing, like a Michaelangelo. Definitely a fun new tool!

Geometric Man

When I doodle, it's almost always triangles in patterns.   Wondering why I love this little watercolor so much,  I realized that he is composed of triangles! I actually painted this as a reclining nude, but when I finished I thought it looked better as a vertical.

Don't turn your face

This is a very quick watercolor sketch done in the life drawing studio.  I've been restricting myself to watercolor in these weekly sessions and am getting good results lately. I love the way watercolor is unpredictable.  The title is taken from a  poem I really like  by Miguel Unamuno called "Throw Yourself Like Seed".
